Hi, i have just set up a small home network using two pc's
and a cable modem. The pc's are connected using crossover
cable to nic's. With one PC using windows 2000 pro
operating as the gateway and the second PC using Windows
ME and operating as the client.

I have managed to allow each pc to access the internet via
the cable modem but when i view the network i only see the
gateway pc, and not the client, is it ok for this to
happen? and how would i go about being able to view the
client from the gateway pc and share its folders?
 
On WinME machine open the Network properties and enable either files and/or
printers access.
